I am from blue rubber gloves,
from rat cages and lots of paperwork.
I'm from the bed in grandma's room.
(The blankets so soft and the pillow so fluffy)

I am from the strawberry plant
The garden in the back yard
Whose vegetables were so delicious
and still are today.

I'm from dumplings and sushi,
from all the work my dad did to make money
all the customers he helped to keep us happy.
I am from those moments
the things that made me happy
and the things that made me who I am.
